If you’re looking for something to read out in the sun today, the paper from my PhD project with @katjaroeper at @CellBiol_MRCLMB is available on biorxiv. We know it takes a lot of genes switching on to make a tube but what needs switching off?

Latest work from the lab! @drannabelmay @CellBiol_MRCLMB generated a single cell atlas of tube morphogenesis of the Drosophila salivary gland. Unexpectedly we found that some things need to be switched off to allow tube formation to happen! Read all here biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

New lab adventure! Our first paper in a new tube morphogenesis system, nephron formation in human renal organoids from iPSCs, check out our multi-ome and functional analysis of early polarisation and MET biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… @CellBiol_MRCLMB

If you’re wondering what’s causing that beautiful pattern?? You can come and see my poster now @ P67 and my talk this afternoon at #BSDBsheffield and I can tell you more about it!

Röper lab @CellBiol_MRCLMB out in force at #BSDBSheffield, don’t miss Anna’s @fliesandfacts talk O03 and JP’s short talk FT03 on Monday, and Ella and Rob’s posters P19 and P22, all about tubes in both flies and human renal organoids!

Hi #Dros22 I’ll be at poster 593A presenting my PhD research - looking at single cell transcriptomics in our tubulogenesis model from 2-4pm. Come talk single cell sequencing and morphogenesis with me! (Also I’m right next to the free coffee which is the best place to be)

Also if you happen to work on embryonic CNS, Muscle or the enhancer split complex I would absolutely love to chat with you so please drop by. I have some unanswered questions you might be able to help with 🤔 #Dros22

It’s been a pleasure attending the #BSDB joint meeting! Time to cross the pond and do it all again, see you tomorrow #Dros22 ✈️

Hey look it’s me! PS: I know how daunting applying for a PhD can be (especially as a first gen student). I’m more than happy to answer any questions about the process, especially for the LMB. My DMs are always open ☺️ #MRCLMB #LMB #PhDChat #LMBPhD

Brilliant thread can’t wait to try some of these out

Academic writing is wild bc you’ll read four articles just to write one sentence. Anyway, here’s a thread of resources I’ve been using to speed through this review I’m working on:

If you missed it please go and watch one of projects I did for #camfest. I’m super proud of it and I don’t want have covered my bedroom in glitter for nothing.
